    NOTE: New SASSANIAN/SASSANID EMPIRE SERIES EPISODES ARE UP: Episode 1: kzread.info/dash/bejne/fXejuryFhbqpfZM.html&ab_channel=YoreHistory Episode 2: kzread.info/dash/bejne/rIl7x6R9epi7fco.html&ab_channel=YoreHistory As for this series on the Achaemenid Empire...aware the music gets irritating. It was my first series and each episode was shown weeks apart. Together its more annoying but again old series...newer series are scored lower volume and better production quality.

    *_I've never watched as long a history video on KZread in my life as this one. Extremely refreshing seeing it through the other side of history. I especially appreciate that you shed light on the burning of Persian libraries under Alexander. The reason to why we know so little of not only Persia but of Babylon is truly, in my opinion, because of Alexander and his Greeks. We are lead to believe that Libraries was an invention by Alexander and that the exchange of ideas began with him as opposed to the more tolerant Cyrus the Great. We are lead to believe that the Greek who we know to be extremely conservative were the first people to begin mixing of cultures. What a great lie. So much for "Greece is the foundation of civilisation"..._*

    We have some of the names in Old Persian actually. It’s more that modern historians don’t use the Persian names. Cyrus is Kurash, Darius is Darayavaush. Xerxes is xshayarsa. Artaxerxes is Artaxshaca. Persia is Parsa. Media is Mada. Achaemenid is Haxamanish. It is true most of the sources were lost. Some in the burning of Persepolis. But much more probably survived until the systemic burning of Persian libraries done by the Arabs 9 centuries later. The only sources left from the Achaemenids are now inscribed in stone. The Behistûn inscription is a great read to see old Persian names

    All Canadians and Americans sound slightly odd on some words to the English because they always try to phonetically pronounce every letter in a word while the English are far more lazy and tend to shorten words more. I noticed in one video you pronounce a place in England and really stress the Ford in a name like Woodford I think it was, while we'd use Woodfud almost. It's not something to think about just jars the English listener a bit.

    @ about 37:30 a part of history I find really interesting is the differences in armies tactics, composition, and equipment. For example in this video talking about the Persians, the bulk of their fighting was done in the middle East, so their armies develope around cavalry, chariots, and light armor, then fighting in Greece, the terrain and weather doesn't suit them in the same way. Specifically what I find interesting is how these dynamics affected battles, as well as how armies adapted to differing conditions and introduction to new technology/equipment. I think the Romans are the most interesting example of this, they were usually quick to change tactics, army composition, and equipment depending on the situation, and when introduced to different weapons and armor. The evolution of the Roman legions is a really interesting topic. There are others who have done videos on it, but I would love to see more.

    It is a testimony to the capability of the founder of the Achaemenian empire, Cyrus the Great, that it continued to expand after his death and lasted for more than two centuries. But Cyrus was not only a great conqueror and administrator; he held a place in the minds of the Persian people similar to that of Romulus and Remus in Rome or Moses for the Israelites. His saga follows in many details the stories of hero and conquerors from elsewhere in the ancient world. The manner in which the baby Cyrus was given to a shepherd to raise is reminiscent of Moses in the bulrushes in Egypt, and the overthrow of his tyrannical grandfather has echoes in other myths and legends. There is no doubt that the Cyrus saga arose early among the Persians and was known to the Greeks. The sentiments of esteem or even awe in which Persians held him were transmitted to the Greeks, and it was no accident that Xenophon chose Cyrus to be the model of a ruler for the lessons he wished to impart to his fellow Greeks. In short, the figure of Cyrus has survived throughout history as more than a great man who founded an empire. He became the epitome of the great qualities expected of a ruler in antiquity, and he assumed heroic features as a conqueror who was tolerant and magnanimous as well as brave and daring. His personality as seen by the Greeks influenced them, and, as the tradition was transmitted by the Romans, may be considered to influence our thinking even now.

    Throughout history, Iran (Persia) was always a cradle of science, contributing to medicine, mathematics, astronomy and philosophy. Professor Patrick Hunt "If you are looking at the greatest personages in History who have affected the World, 'Cyrus the Great' is one of the few who deserves that epithet, the one who deserves to be called 'the Great'. The empire over which Cyrus ruled was the largest the Ancient World had ever seen and maybe to this day the largest empire ever. "

    Excellent video! New sub. Puerto Rican historian here. May I show parts of this in my classroom? If you are ok with this. It won't be the whole thing , just the rule of Darius III and the Macedonian Invasion.

    Great dcou! I think you Gandhara(28:14) placed at a wrong location, it should be modern day N W Pakistan, and not Iran where you have it located. Or perhaps Wikipedia is a bit off. Please provide some detail about Gandhara, as it's of particular interest to me due to my ancestry. Thank you again for your great work!

    Yes I was eyeballing the cities during a bad edit and forgot to fix this one...i now do these different so not usually an issue anymore so apologies. Gandharra has a rich history though since you are asking...for things like budhism it played an important role due to its central location for spreading it outward. It also reached its height of importance under the Kushan Empire. HOpefully it features again on future videos. Thanks for watching!

    Interesting fact. Original Persians came from Parsua in western Iran, conquered Anshan, the elamite city and established Pars in south Iran, Persians aren’t originally from there.

    Hadarnes was correct in recommending sending two cavalry (divisions) myriads ahead catching Leonidas in march before getting to the "Hot Gates" and while their forces were separated thus pinning them down. The main body would have cleared Thermopylae unharried. Xerxes snatched defeat from the jaws of victory, for burning Athens and not setting up a proper forward supply base. Themistocles' trap worked both ways at Salamis, it required the Persian fleet(s) to come into the channel (which of course they did), if the Persians had not, the Hellenic alliance were trapped, were going hungry on Salamis Island itself. They would have had to at least abandon the position, thus the alliance would have further broken up (more Medizers coming over) and (or) fight an open battle to the south towards the Peloponnese to a decisive advantage of the more maneuverable, better trained fleet(s) of Xerxes.
